Along with academic tutoring services, homework assistance, peer counseling, and sports activities, My Backyard is proud to continue our FCAT assistance program, with a focus on Reading and Math Enrichment. The following are objectives that will be followed for the FCAT tutoring assistance:

1. Assist students in grades 6 - 8 to develop critical thinking skills to increase reading comprehension of narrative and expository text.

2. Assist students in grades 6 - 8 to understand and apply mathematical concepts to solve real world problems as well as reinforce basic math skills.

This will help prepare students for state assessments and high school graduation requirements.
